They key to learning English (or any other language) is practice, practice, practice. Make it a point to speak, listen to, read, and write the language every single day, even if its only for 20 minutes or so. Whenever you say something in your native language, try to think of how to say that in English (or any language you are learning). With enough practice it becomes easier and easier, and eventually you will be fluent.

I am neither a teacher nor a language professional, but I did learn English as a second language.

I learned to speak correctly by listening to people who speak correctly. If you pay close attention, you'll notice, many people we meet in everyday life actually do not speak well. If you learn how to speak correctly, you can always relax and choose to be less perfect, but if you learn incorrectly, you could never speak correctly.

Study grammer, read good literature, be aware of sentence structures.... Be able to tell the difference between good English from bad.

with the aid of fact the sounds of the Spanish language are extra equivalent to English and because Spanish words are oftentimes spelt the way they're stated, Spanish ought to be a minimum of as worry-free as French if no longer much less complicated. despite if, you need to desire to contemplate Dutch. There are no longer many supplies for examining the language (with the aid of fact Dutch isn't spoken with the aid of many people and the majority in the Netherlands talk English extremely nicely), yet once you will hit upon a variety, it may be an worry-free language to learn. this is with the aid of fact Dutch is the main heavily appropriate language to English (plenty nearer than German), a great variety of the extra uncomplicated words (which includes pronouns) sound like English words stated with a stable accessory. to illustrate, me, mine, he and we in Dutch are mij, mijn, hij and wij: the spelling is distinctive yet they're stated the comparable way. Him her and it are hem, haar and het; in case you assert them aloud you will locate how comparable they're to the English. i locate that i will oftentimes (yet no longer constantly) get the gist of written Dutch even although I definitely have by no ability studied the language, notwithstanding that is with the aid of fact I definitely have a smattering of German and previous English. I definitely have learnt some languages and that i will say that as long as you maintain up the different languages (with the aid of examining a newspaper or listening to the radio some cases each week), there are no problems. on the alternative, the extra languages you learn, the better it gets.

My advice is immerse yourself in the language. It's not enough to study a book about it or listen to a tape, tutors can even be useless. Oddly enough if money weren't an issue I'd suggest going to that country to learn the language, and while your at it the culture. If not go with a tutor, but one that is fun, or else you'll hate your life.

For English, it depends on where you live. If you have access to English speakers, spend as much time with them as you possibly can.
